Perhaps that's not funny. No I do have some areas of blindness on life skills - I can do some things straight off, like mental arithmetic in my head (er...where else?:D), but yea I am not as advanced as most people on general life things and they are areas where, some of them, I can fall down:(. But I'm getting by alright though and things aren't as desperate as that frown sounds.0

Yeah, there is something clearly wrong with me here:
You checked off 45 out of 100 on this list!:((:rotfl:?)
You know a lot about some things… but you’re perhaps seriously lacking in certain areas. Excusable, if you’ve been living under a rock or in a bomb shelter for the past 30 years. :rotfl::(:(:o:rotfl::(
Don't worry savvy.....I saw there was questions about sewing and cooking and gave up
Your life skills are probably different to the ones in the quiz. The way I see it we are alive and we have skills that make that possible.....;)0 -
Right, my iPad is about to die. I shall bid you all a goodnight.
See you in the morning xLife is not about learning to avoid the storms - it's about learning to dance in the rain.0 -

There is a 'right' way to do it, which is (generally) considered 'proper', even if you don't know what that is. Your answer is 'No' to that question then, even if I've no idea at all myself as to what that proper way is:o:(.:)
Maybe, my own 'low' score I'm being a little harsh on myself and answering a bit too strictly and literally whereas, on a little bit more lenient view, my score might go up. (By about 2 or 3 points:(.)0 -

Well I know I don't do fitted sheets....or any other sheets correctly. I get a whole bedding set (quilt cover, 2 sets pillow cases and whatever sort of sheet) and put it inside one one of the pillow cases) easy to find and no raking around to find what matches what. My bedding cupboard has loads of pillow cases stuffed with full bedding sets

Sewing, no. Cooking, I think I answered that as 'yes' - as it was a simple meal. But as for cooking pasta...:o. I can't change a tyre to save my life either, but then I don't need to, I just get the garage to replace any tyres that would become a problem when I have my car more generally checked:):).0 -

I have never bothered with any of these quizzes, I am sure they are only there for a laugh
So forget it, we are all different to each other and what makes the list compiler the expert on life skills or whatever it happens to be

Good bloody riddance
Hiya hun, I'm very happy with my 2 shops thank you. I had the last 5 boxes of raisin bakes off the shelf. God they are yummy
:D
I think T's still has the Easter mags in, I can check tomorrow for you though.
I'm Working all over Easter, as I only do 3 hours on a weekday I'm really not fussed. I've a wedding to go to Friday though, as long as I've time to tart myself up for it I'll be happy.
How you doing, were you in Sada today then?0 -

We are all individuals with our own strengths and weaknesses. It's not important to measure ourselves against others....just feel happy in your own skin.
